Wych Hill, Bridport, Dorset

Detached house with local seaside views and up to date modernisation.

The Dwelling - This house lies in an elevated position above Bridport and was built for one reason and one reason only, to take in the wonderful views. The property is geared so that each of the principal rooms takes in those views through large picture windows from the golf course to the east and through West Bay to the south. The property in recent years has been stylishly updated in contemporary style with of particular note a kitchen/dining room which flows through to both a sitting room and a conservatory - many peoples’ ideal for contemporary living.

Accommodation - Much of the living accommodation lies on the south and west side of the house with a sitting room looking due south and with the focal point of a stone fireplace with an inset gas fired wood burner style stove with bifold doors that open out into the kitchen/dining room. The kitchen/dining room lies on the south and west side of the house with a large island unit to its centre with quartz worksurfaces over and has an integral hob with a stainless-steel extractor hood over. To the rear of the kitchen there is a bank of cupboards that provide a huge amount of storage and to the other side there is space for a large dining table beyond which doors lead through to a covered conservatory.

Off the central hallway there is a cloakroom while to the other side of the property there are two bedrooms one of which is currently organised as a snug with the main bedroom having a comprehensive range of built in wardrobes and cupboards. These two bedrooms are served by a shower room equipped with a large walk-in double sized shower. Upstairs there are two rooms that could be bedrooms but one of which is organised as a second sitting room or viewing room that takes the best of the views in through large ceiling to floor windows.

The flooring throughout the property is high quality with a mixture of ceramic tile, oak/ pine board and carpeting. The property is beautifully decorated throughout.

Outside - From inside the property a door on the south side leads out onto a terrace enclosed by wrought iron railings, while on the west side upstairs a door leads through to a second terrace enclosed by glass and stainless steel balustrading - ideal for taking in the west sun at the end of the day.

The property is approached via a private road with an extensive area of driveway laid to hardstanding that leads up to a large double garage with a workshop area to one end. To one side of the drive there is a terraced garden arranged for ease of maintenance with an array of mature shrubs that need very little maintenance except on an annual basis. On the west side of the house a paved terrace, ideal for entertaining, which leads down to a second area of terrace laid to beach gravel punctuated by further planting. Below there is a third terrace with a timber garden shed to one side.
